Well, are you uninformed?  Are you trained in law enforcement tactics?  Do you have experience working as a law enforcement officer?  Have you been involved in drafting policy for law enforcement agencies?  Have you ever served a warrant, no knock or otherwise?  My answer to every question but the first is, yes.  

After answering those questions, you tell me, are you informed on this topic?

I'm calling into question whether the societal cost in minimized by the policy. 

There is what you call the "emotional" component; The cost of an innocent life. But there are other costs like the literal cost to the taxpayers, the cost against the trust of the public with the state. 

What from your expertise can dispell the assertion that the societal cost is not higher with the policy than some other alternative?
